Dear friends of The Hidden Trove, I ask for your thoughts and prayers for my precious Lauren. As some of you already know, and some of you just finding out now, Lauren was diagnosed with breast cancer 2 days after celebrating her 36th birthday in July. Since that time her weeks have been filled with many appointments, lots of tests, and quite a bit of anxiety. Tomorrow (Friday) is surgery day. She will be having a double mastectomy and soon afterwards will be starting chemotherapy and then radiation. Her surgery is later in the day, but will be there early for prep so she'll have her phone and some idle time beforehand. Your well wishes and prayers would mean so much and for her to read them before heading back to surgery might just fill her with a calmness knowing so many are lifting her up in their thoughts and prayers. Please leave her well wishes and FILL HER UP with encouragement! Thank you all that have loved on her, prayed for her, hugged her, spoken healing over her...all of it, just THANK YOU! And, if there's any extra in the tank, say a little prayer for this ol' momma! When it's your child you hurt with them. Thanks friends!
***We will be closed Friday 8/21 and Saturday 8/22. I'll be back in the shop on Tuesday 8/25. ***
